Kareem Jackson has made it clear he wants to be more than just a veteran presence in the Broncos’ locker room.
The 35-year-old safety has been productive during his four years with Denver, totaling 342 tackles in 61 games and a career-best 94 stops in 2022. Still, Jackson is entering his 14th season and understands that some in the league might view him as a player near the end of the road.
Third-year Caden Sterns, 23, is primed to start alongside safety Justin Simmons in the regular season, as he has taken most of the first-team reps during training camp.
